[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1679915, member: 25884"] Sorry, I agree with you [USER=39122]@Little Joe[/USER] .... I would not expect a man to "earn the living" and do the rest too. That is pure lazy indulgence on the woman's part, and teaching that to the daughters is disgraceful. That is the next closest thing to having a slave in my opinion. I wasn't criticizing what you said... I wholly agree with you. It doesn't hurt a man to know how to, and to help out... but a woman/wife should be doing her fair share and then some, to take care of the home and provide for the man's comfort too. So what if she works a job outside of the house... if she is home more often than he is, then she needs to do more of the work around there. I have seen the scenario that you mentioned in the friend's household, and think it is absolutely absurd. And for men to not know how to fix anything is sad.... I can do some things, and hate to do carpenter type things, but will do them if I have to. Rather have a man do that and I will cook a meal for him instead. There are too many lazy and self indulgent women out there that think they should only do what they want " after the long hard day they put in at their job".... Maybe with this country falling apart, they will get a little hungry, and learn that not everything revolves around them.... and learn that you don't just have to do your "part" you have to do 100% and hope that someone will be willing to do their 100% so that you both benefit. I don't "have to have a man in my life" ... but it would sure be nice to have one to do many of the things I hate to do, in exchange for doing some of the things I am good at, FOR him.
